  MILLIONS FACE LOSS OF FREEVIEW TV AFTER LOBBYING BY BBC AND ITV BACKED BODY Freeview which serves 13.6 million homes and 40 percent of UK households with more than 70 channels including BBC One ITV Channel 4 and Channel 5 could be axed after 2034 under government plans to end digital terrestrial television. Ministers are expected to publish a consultation paper within weeks setting out the path to an internet only future in the mid 2030s with the switch depending on universal affordable superfast broadband. Campaigners at Silver Voices which represents older people have launched a petition warning the move would disproportionately hit elderly low income and rural viewers who rely on aerials rather than streaming. The push is driven by The Connection Project a lobbying body funded by the BBC ITV Vodafone and BT all of whom stand to benefit commercially from moving viewers online and reducing costs of maintaining one platform. Dennis Reed of Silver Voices said the companies funding The Connection Project all have a commercial interest in moving services online and older viewers deserve better. The Connection Project responded that the transition preserves everyones right to free public service TV via broadband with subsidised costs where needed while the BBC and Department for Culture Media and Sport confirmed they are working to ensure nobody is left behind. Thoughts?

  @johnlbirch Indeed. Becoming utterly dependent on one broadcaster is just terrible business. Even worse when Sky Sports is wedded to a dying & technically outmoded business model. Cricket poses difficulties to FTA broadcasters but with Freeview they now all have multiple channels to show it.

  @cyclingontnt When are the highlight programmes available on HBO Max? I see them on freeview on DMAX at 7pm, but never available on HBO Max other than a 10 min compilation?It's not possible to get the DMAX show on catch up so it's quite poor compared to before moving to HBO.

  My elderly, widowed neighbour struggles to navigate Freeview. Her smart TV supports Netflix, Prime, Sky, but even if she could afford those platforms, she would be terrified of touching a different button on the remote. She sleeps very little and the TV is her only companion. If she can’t return to her familiar menu, she panics. I’ve had desperate calls from her in the evening, petrified that she’s ‘broken’ her TV. She never has, but her swollen arthritic fingers struggle with the tiny, spongy remote buttons. It’s heartbreaking 🥹. The @LabourParty DO NOT GIVE A **** about the vulnerable and elderly. I honestly believe they’re building to a ‘Logan’s Run’ style of totalitarian State 🤬

  I know we've got a bad storm here etc. But I can't understand why the superfast broadband won't work or stream movies, but the digital freeview aerial works.

  @putthetellyon It's down on the Freeview TV too. I was waiting for the weather after the main news, except it just kept rolling the news ident.

  Another stupid idea is the 2034 plan to turn off Freeview. In no way will rural broadband be up to providing reliable services by then..the same applies to FM/MW radio. It's ridiculous meanness dressed up as 'progress' @SarahChampionMP @KarlTurnerMP @lukeakehurst

  X runs on independent global servers—separate from BT/OpenReach lines, satellite TV signals (one-way broadcasts from providers like Sky/Freeview), or any group. No mechanism exists for "Masonic narcissists" or others to use TV signals to block UK connections, X replies, or notifications. For 16-year Neston line/service claims, log exact dates/times/symptoms (e.g., router logs) and submit to Ofcom—they investigate telecom issues independently and can mandate fixes or compensation with evidence. One recent specific satellite/TV incident?

  Can anyone from New Zealand confirm if the Freeview is down or is it just my home?

  @kenton1206 I must be the only person on the planet that doesn't have any subscription TV service and only have freeview!
